January 5, 2004 -- IT'S fashionable in left- wing circles to describe anyone who admires America as a fascist. But the real totalitarian threats of our time come from the left. And no public figure embodies the left's contempt for basic freedoms more perfectly than Howard Dean.

Dean and the Demoncrats: a match made in Hell.

Ralph Peters is hilarious. Howard Dean is simply a puffed up and angry Nikita Khruschev and he's just as impulsive with the difference that he hasn't banged his shoe on a desk yet. The Gorbachev's analogy's fitting only in the respect that Dean's no reformer; but all the same he wants to transform a great power into a mouse. All ambition, all drive, no grand theme for winning the White House and changing the country for the better. With so little, its amazing Dean's come so far for an ex-Governor of such a tiny state.

It is amazing hearing all of these Dimocrats who for the past 4 years have been chanting how dumb Bush is are silent about Crazy Howie's many gaffes and embarrassments.

[lainde]

Ralph is so restrained (LOL)!

[stradivarius]

In other words, Howard Dean's another of Stalin's well-intentioned "useful idiots" exactly like the human shields that went to Baghdad to protect Saddam Hussein's socialist totalitarian fascist murderous dictatorship

Except that even after the "Vietnam-War quagmire" of approximately 3-weeks of major combat operations from March 20, 2003 - April 14, 2003, and 10 months of successful progress to secure peace in a region that has never before been offered self-governing democracy, Dean still doesn't have any respect for liberty or America.

I like this article. The one thing it leaves out is Dean doublespeech. The debabte yesterday from him was all "I didn't say what I said" and "don't expect a direct answer to a direct question".

(Broken record here). Dean is dangerous. It would not be good having him frame the debate with his lack of vision and disconcern for what's best for the country. The other eight have understandable reasons for wanting to be President. This guy just needs a stage and a following.

I also wouldn't trust him to not play any imaginable trick to win come election day, if he's on that ballot.

In a way I wish our side could hold off on attacking Dean until it's a sure bet he gets the nomination. After all, we wouldn't want to have dems wise up to him at this point and nominate someone else who has a better chance.

[kattracks]

I think Dean's supporters couldn't care less about his stupid remarks, and lack of any coherent policies. As long as he continues to spout his garbaage about the war and President Bush he will be their hero.

[MEG33]

I think the hard core love him even more when he's attacked .Peters' "all problems,no solutions" exposure of Dean's rants is great.

Howard Dean has nothing beyond ambition

I don't think it is pure ambition. I think he's just a basically empty, bored ex-highschool wrestler who is on a great ego trip. That's about it to me.

I think 'Doc' should go to Aspen and take that ski instructor gig next winter.

It's great that the RNC got ahold of stumpy Howie back at Yale, and brought him to the right side. He's doing pretty damn good as a Republican plant! Cool.

We have to start grooming the next era plants to screw up the Dem. campaigns.

Khruschev was the political/military director for the defense of Stalingrad. The city was about 1 mile wide, 7 miles long. The city backed up to a river. Anyways, Khruschev killed a million Russians, and about the same number of Germans. Khruschev was one tough cookie. Dean is a rich little twerp from the white stocking district of NY.

summer:

I agree. Dean is nothing but a little draft-dodging twerp who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. All this talk about "anger", "ambition", and so forth is just a smoke screen to cover up the fact that this clown is really nothing - nothing at all. And, it's a sorry, sorry reflection on America that he is given any consideration at all as a "candidate" for the democrat nomination for the presidency.

"I think Dean's supporters couldn't care less about his stupid remarks, and lack of any coherent policies. As long as he continues to spout his garbaage about the war and President Bush he will be their hero."

I've noticed that, as well. I've spoken with a handful of Dean supporters, and they were, each and every one of them, young, highly emotional, devoid of any objective reasoning capacity, and gave all the appearance of being cultists, and the type who would have joined Jim Jones in Guyana. That is what really struck me: Dean's supporters are slavish disciples of a personality cult. That is the core of his support. Pretty scary.

"Dean's supporters are slavish disciples of a personality cult. That is the core of his support. Pretty scary."

Well, the one advantage of that is that, should Dean not get the nomination, his kool-aid drinkers are not likely to support whichever Democrat beat him.

[aruanan]

just another hollow man soiling the halls of power.

For the hollow man to soil the halls of power, wouldn't he have to be full of something first?
